heart & soul: December 2012
http://cevnow.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 14, 2012. Mourning for lives barely begun and for lives marked by others' inexplicable actions. I feel deep grief in my gut, at the corners of my eyes, it feels like a burgeoning rage which i try to suppress. a hollow, guttural moan forms in my gut. grief. beyond the usual question, why? Lie clues: mom was teacher in classroom where shootings occurred. but, not much else. so far. I'm reminded of alice miller. S research: when celebrities kill themselves, the whole world asks "why? Expert...

heart & soul: October 2012

Thursday, October 25, 2012. 4 young mothers work hard to find time to meet for "a quick cuppa joe.". Thank God for small pleasures and warm hearts. What's next on your to-do list, says one? Which of the multitude of to-do lists are you referring to, replies the chorus? The one entitled ways to stay sane. Says she, punctuating with a laugh? Monday, October 22, 2012. I am (back where i started). Funny thing about unresolved things; they . return. humbling, this. I try to taste newness. We "settle" for "new...

heart & soul: November 2012
http://cevnow.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 27, 2012. In the age of soundbites and market-driven-but-glossy-looking short-term memory amnesia, i abhor redundancy. so i refrain from commenting on this article, because my comments would replicate the author's opinion. What brand is your therapist? An old-fashioned, un-sexy shrink. Wednesday, November 21, 2012. Heart and soul, part 1. Why this title for a psychotherapist's blog? Literary. remember philip roth's human stain. That kind of literary. And almost for that reason alone.

Monday, July 8, 2013. Girls rule and boys drool. Title of post is direct quote from alpha girls. this witty little ditty has tentacled itself in my mind. can't get rid of it. i hate it, clever as it is. here's what kindlon says to explain aphorism:. Will their penchant for figuratively horsing around while their female peers master important life skills mean that they are going to become increasingly irrelevant? And stomp off, muttering to their daughters, "she's jealous because you're than her son!

heart & soul: March 2013
http://cevnow.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 8, 2013. I write by hand. Not too long ago, at a small dinner party, i had the opportunity to articulate my position vis-a-vis teaching kids cursive handwriting. Is the milieu in which their children grow up. 4 open laptops and 7 cell phones permanently on the "dining room" table, pantries transformed into media and cable lockers, myriad connectors shoved into former catch-all drawers in kitchen. common setting. Why do you suppose this is so? Kids need to learn cursive? Because the opposing...

heart & soul: pilfered springboard
http://cevnow.blogspot.com/2013/03/pilfered-springboard.html
Wednesday, March 6, 2013. And the time continuum connects these two strands linearly to Kim Chernin's quote prefacing this post, pilfered from her blog. Equally explicit is Siegel's connection between suffering, disconnectedness, and love, though he would likely call these existential states impaired integration, impaired relationships, and right-brain affiliation. This reminds me of a favorite writer, George Vaillant. Lest mental health professionals decry these affirmations, challenging the recent temp...
